Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

BelgiumA bit of maintance of certain sections is warranted. I feel that the need to cross the river by foot should be more clearly communicated because crossing the bridge with a big bag would be particularly difficult for certain people. Finally, we had a cold shower on all three days and the water came out in a single stream from a pipe with no shower head. Not a huge constraint, but did make the end of the day slightly more uncomfortable.
Lovely setting, friendly staff and, if you like animals, they are great company when in common areas. Food was simple but good quality and tasty. Overall great stay and we were happy to be there.

South AfricaNothing , it was great!
The bed may have been the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! I felt like a princess and the bungalow was so ideal to just relax in the hammock. Julian was an incredible host and I really enjoyed chatting to him! And then I met Miguel on my last night and he was also incredibly friendly and accommodating. Also special mention Nino, Jack and Milo, I loved the doggo loves!!

CroatiaGreat place, close to the main road that connects several Tayrona national park entrances. But still, divided by a small river from the village and surrounded by rainforest trees. Awesome hosts, we got excellent recommendations how to trek the Tayrona NP. If you arrive by car that is of no issue, you can park in front of the house close to the path that takes you to accommodation suites. We paid to house owners a fee of 6000 COP per night for parking. It was perfectly safe. Diners were awesome, make sure to try local craft beers from Santa Marta ;)

CroatiaParadise is the best word I could use to describe the accommodation. In the middle of the nature, with lovely pet animals, amazing food and drinks and mini bar in the bungalow, amazing river. Miguel Angel was really helpful and described in detail where we should go to the national park, also was happy to give some personal advices I asked for. The whole experience will make you wanna move there.

ColombiaThe food was good but could be slightly improved upon, but maybe it's because, since I'm a vegetarian, my options were limited.
I had a great stay at Tyrona paradise! The staff was incredibly nice and helpful and the whole place was incredibly authentic and felt very isolated from civilisation, which was great. Everything was squicky clean and the place is barely 10 minutes by bus from the main entrance to the Tyrona National park, which is very convenient. I would 100% recommend!

Everything was perfect about Tayrona Paradise. the room, the whole place, really nice breakfast and food, absolutely lovely staff always so friendly and so helpful with all the questions I had about what to do in the area. the posada is in a very convenient location too, very close to the main road (but you would not hear the traffic at all and you’ll be completely immersed in nature) so very easy to get the local bus to explore the surroundings. highly recommended to everyone!

United KingdomI can’t fault anything, and this is not a negative point but it’s important to note that you need to cross a slim wooden bridge (someone helps you to carry your suitcases across) to get to the hotel. This would be difficult if you are not able bodied. But overall, this is all part of the adventure to get to paradise.
This is definitely paradise, it’s so beautiful that you don’t want to leave. We were so happy…..we stayed an extra two nights. The staff are really helpful and quickly become like your family, the food is delicious! The rescue dogs and cats are the cherry on the top - they are so playful and loving and we were sad to say goodbye to them. There are monkeys, chickens, frogs, beautiful mango trees and plants, natural pool…. the list is endless. Not to mention the most amazing river just outside your door, which we dipped into each day after coming back from our excursions. If you want to experience real Colombian hospitality and surroundings - this is the place for you. It’s close to Tayrona Park which is breathtaking and you can get there by bus, which stops outside the entrance of the hotel. We hired two motorbike taxis who took us to Palomino, stopping off at various places on the way - this cost £15 for five hours, a good way to see the beauty around you. I loved this place so much, I want to bring all of my family here next year.

United StatesNothing i didnt like, but for some the cabaña may be a little too rustic for them. Keep in mind its in the jungle and has nets for a reason. Would be impossible to keep out every bug, but nothing large or creepy came in. Its a very natural experience, listening to the jungle, the river, all night and day. Perfect for me
A staff member met us in the parking area and guided us across a beautiful river to a magical door. I knew i was in for a treat at that moment. My kind of paradise for sure. Julian at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room is dreamlike, i booked the private cabaña sitting alone in the jungle, with a front porch and the most comfortable king bed ive had in years and a clean organized room with private bathroom and a mini fridge with drinks and snacks. Dinner was delicious. I booked another day
